Cybersecurity services
Every organization needs a cybersecurity program, and to continually improve it.
Organizations must not be sloppy or negligent with anything, least of all cybersecurity and information governance.
Cybercrime is a threat to every organization, attacks and scams can disable and are costly. Legal requirements exist for cybersecurity. Good cybersecurity is a part of good management which helps organizations achieve their mission.
John offers:
- One-hour paid consult to help implement Bandler's Cybersecurity Program (Free DIY version)
- Small flat-fee implementation package for very small organizations
- Flat fee packages suitable for size and budget of organization
- Review of existing documentation and practices.
Simply put, good organization cybersecurity helps organizations achieve three main goals:
- Protect from cybercrime
- Comply with legal requirements
- Better achieve the Mission through proper management and efficiency.
When these three goals are met, we achieve a fourth goal, peace of mind.
To do this, we need to work on a number of interrelated activities that relate to people, technology, information systems, law, and management.
John has built and refined concepts and systems to conceptualize and implement what needs to be done to build and improve an organization's cybersecurity program, including through:
- Bandler's Cybersecurity Program
- Four Pillars of Cybersecurity
- Five Components for Policy Work and Management.
We want to:
- Know and evaluate legal requirements (external rules)
- Build and improve internal rules (policies, procedures)
- Practice what we preach (do what the policy says we are supposed to do)
- Manage risks reasonably and effectively
- Manage information assets efficiently to accomplish the mission
- Continually improve.
Organizations should protect against and prevent the Three Priority Cybercrime Threats which are costly in time, money, and reputation. These include:
- Data breaches – compromise of confidential data. This may require investigation, notification to government and clients and customers, and damage reputation.
- Ransomware – locks computer systems and data making them unusable. The organization is extorted to pay a significant ransom to the cybercriminals to try regain access to systems and data. This may also be a data breach.
- Theft of funds – large payments can be diverted and stolen. The funds may never be recovered and may not be insured. Litigation and other disruption ensue.
Organizations should comply with legal requirements.
- Be diligent and reasonable in plan and practice (not negligent or deficient).
- Protect the personal and private information they are entrusted with.
- Including information belonging to customers, clients, patients, donors, and employees.
- Prevent, identify, and accurately report data breaches to government and affected parties.
- Comply with laws and regulations that impose specific cybersecurity requirements.
For example, New York’s General Business Law (G.B.L., SHIELD Act) imposes a number of distinct obligations. Your state does too.
Organizations should manage information assets effectively to further the mission and business needs.
Many organizations have no cybersecurity plan. Many have not reached the point where their security can be described as “reasonable” or “diligent”. Many have a cybersecurity program but it needs significant improvement. John can help improve organization security, compliance, and efficiency.
